• Nature of matter
• Properties of matter & their measurement
• Laws of chemical combinations
• Dalton’s atomic theory
• Atomic and molecular masses
• Concentration in solutions
• Chemistry deals with the composition, structure and properties of matter. These
aspects can be best described and understood in terms of basic constituents of
matter, that’s why chemistry is called the science of atoms and molecules.
Chemistry plays a central role in science and is often intertwined with other
braches of science like physics, biology, geology etc.
Nature of matter
• Matter is anything which has mass and occupies space e.g., solid, liquid and
gaseous states are three different states of matter.
1. Solid have definite volume and definite shape. In solids, particles are
held very close to each other in an orderly fashion.
2. In liquids, the particles are closed to each other but they can move
around. Its have definite volume but not definite shape. They take the
shape of container in which they are placed.
3. In gases, particles are far apart as compared to those present in solids
and liquids state and their movement is easy and fast. Gases have
neither definite volume nor definite shape. They completely occupy the
container in which they are placed.
• These three states of matter are interconvertible by changing the conditions of
temperature and pressure.

• Homogeneous mixture is a mixture which has the same composition through out.
The components are indistinguishable, e.g. sugar solution.
• Heterogeneous mixture has distinguishable components, it does not have same
composition throughout, e.g. mixture of salt and sugar.
• Pure substances are either elements or compounds. Elements consist of only
one kind of atoms and can not be decomposed in to simple substances.
• When two or more atom of different elements combine, the molecule of a
compound is obtained.
• The molecules of water and carbon dioxide are represented as –
O
O C O
H H
Xx(massnumberofA) + Yx(massnumberofA)

• Molecular mass is the sum of atomic masses of all atoms in a formula
unit of a compound. E.g. formula mass of NaCl = 23+ 35.5 = 58.8 amu
• Empirical formula of a compound is a chemical formula showing the
simplest whole number ratio of various atoms present in a compound
whereas the molecular formula shows the exact number of different
types of atoms present in a molecule of a compound.
• If the mass percent of various elements present in a compound is
known, its empirical formula can be determined. Molecular formula
can further be obtained if the molar mass is known.
• The molecular formula conveys two important information
a. The relative number of each type of atoms in a molecule.
b. The total number of atoms of each elements in the molecule.
• The reactant which is consumed completely when a reaction goes to
completion is called the limiting reactant or limiting reagent. The
reactant which is not completely consumed is referred to as the excess
reactant or reagent.
Concentration in solutions –
• The concentration of a solution or the amount of substance present in
its given volume can be expressed in any of the following ways —
a. Mass percent or weight percent
b. Mole fraction
c. Molarity
d. Molality
• Mass percent – It is obtained by using the following relation-
Mass of solute
Mass per cent = × 100
Mass of solution
Mole fraction –
• The ratio of the number of moles of one moles of one component to
the total number of moles of all the component present in the solution.
It is expressed as X e.g. for a binary solution of two component A and
B.
nA nB
XA = , XB =
n A + nB n A + nB
XA + XB = 1
Molarity (M) is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolve per
litre (dm3) of the solution.
M = n/v n = moles of solute
V = volume of solution
10 × x × d
Or
M ( solute )
Where x = percentage by mass of solution
d = density of the solution in g/cm3
M (solute) = molar mass of solute
Molality (m) – The number of moles of solute dissolved per 1000g (1
kg) of the solvent.
m = n/w
Where n = number of moles of solute
W = weight of solvent in kg
Or m= nx1000/ w (in grams)
Molality and molarity are related by the equation
D 1 M ( solute )
= +
M m 1000
Molarity and normality both changes with change in temperature but
molality is independent of temperature.
STOICHIOMETRY
The elemental analysis in accordance with chemical equations is known as Stoichiometry and
can be classified into two parts:
1. Volumetric Analysis
2. Gravimetric Analysis
1. Acids: n = basicity
H3PO4 n = 3
H3PO3 n = 2
H3PO2 n = 1
2. Bases: n = acidity
eg. Ammonia and all amines are monoacidic bases
4. Oxidizing Agents or Reducing Agents : ‘n’ factor = change in oxidation number Or number
of electron lost or gained from one mole of the compound.

Note: In a balanced equation n factor ratio of two compounds is reverse of their molar ratio.
Law of Chemical Equivalents: In a chemical reaction the equivalents of all the species
(reactants or products) are equal to each other provided none of these compound is in excess.
N1V1 = N2V2 ( when normalities and volumes are given)
W NV
= (When weight of one substance in given)

Back Titration:
This is a method in which a substance is taken in excess and some part of it has to react with
another substance and the remaining part has to be titrated against standard reagent.
Double Titration: This is a titration of specific compound using different indicators. Let us
consider a solid mixture of NaOH, Na2CO3 and inert impurities.
When the solution containing NaOH and Na2CO3 is titrated using phenolphalein indicator
following reaction takes place at the phenolphthalein end point –
Above titration can be carried out using phenolphthalein and methyl orange in
continuation as well as separately. Accordingly we apply law of equivalents to calculate
percentage composition of the mixture.
Note: Phenolpthlein indicates end point when Na2CO3 is converted into NaHCO3
In gravimetric analysis we deal with different types of relations like weight - weight,
weight - volume, or volume - volume relationship between reactants or products of the
reaction.
